Overview

Understanding climate change science and its role in adaptation will be critical for Maine’s 21st century workforce across a variety of job sectors that include businesses, government decision-making, and education.

Features

The Climate Science and Adaptation Certificate at The University of Maine will target three key knowledge areas in climate studies: the physical science basis, climate-biosphere interactions, and practical application.

The Certificate can be earned with 9 credits with a series of online course options. Our aim is to serve working professionals that are not concurrently enrolled in degree-granting academic programs at University of Maine.
